POWERHOME SOLAR Announces Indiana Expansion

FORT WAYNE, Ind., Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — POWERHOME SOLAR, one of the fastest-growing American companies specializing in solar energy and energy efficiency services, is further expanding its presence in Indiana by opening sales and installation offices in the Fort Wayne area that will provide homeowners and businesses in northeast Indiana with a supplement to grid energy.

FORT WAYNE, Ind., Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — POWERHOME SOLAR, one of the fastest-growing American companies specializing in solar energy and energy efficiency services, is further expanding its presence in Indiana by opening sales and installation offices in the Fort Wayne area that will provide homeowners and businesses in northeast Indiana with a supplement to grid energy.

POWERHOME SOLAR plans to hire up to 100 employees in the coming months to fill warehouse, installation and sales positions. Walk-in interviews for installers, warehouse personnel, electricians and CDL drivers will be held on Feb. 17-18 at the new installation office in Decatur (2232 W. Patterson St.) from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. No prior experience for installers is necessary, as the company offers on-the-job training.

«Electricity prices continue to increase in Indiana,» said POWERHOME SOLAR CEO Jayson Waller. «Residents across the state are seeing how affordable solar is, and their hunger for renewable energy has led us to opening a second office to accommodate for our growing customer base. This also opens the door for more available jobs in the renewable energy market.»

The average monthly electric bill in Indiana is more than $120, per 2019 data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, putting the state in the top half of the country among those with highest electric bills. Solar panels can be financed (in some cases, for roughly the same cost as your electric bill), and once the financing ends, so does your payment for solar, allowing customers to «own their power.»

The cost to install solar has decreased significantly in the past decade, with the catalysts being lower equipment costs and various government tax incentives. Congress recently renewed a federal solar tax credit of 26 percent on newly-installed solar systems through 2021 and 2022. Indiana also supports net metering, which allows consumers to sell their excess energy back to participating utility companies at retail rates.

Those interested in joining the Fort Wayne sales and install teams also can visit http://powerhome.com/solar-jobs or send an email to careers@powerhome.com.

About POWERHOME SOLAR
POWERHOME SOLAR is an energy efficiency company that provides high-quality American-made solar panels as part of a complete energy-savings package for residential customers. The company launched in 2014 in Mooresville, N.C., and today has more than 1,600 employees, including a commercial division. Operating in 11 states, it is ranked No. 255 on the 2020 Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America – the third time in four years that the company has made the top 300 of this prestigious list.

NEW YORK, Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The North American Passive House Network (NAPHN) announced today that it is hosting a building ventilation symposium titled Let’s Clear The Air: Ventilation, High Performance, and Passive House, to be held online, Wednesday, March 10, at 2 – 5:30 PM EST. The symposium will gather experts in building ventilation and the application of Passive House high-performance targets.

In designing and building high-performance buildings, ventilation is often an underappreciated component. The pandemic has made the health implications of good ventilation more obvious but the energy impact remains largely obscured.

Yet when we target radical whole-building energy efficiency, ventilation energy impacts become significant and obvious. The Passive House Institute has helped lead the effort to advance ventilation testing, protocols and certification of components to ensure that high-quality ventilation is a core solution of high-performance building outcomes.

Why does the Passive House methodology demand certain testing and how did we get here? What’s next? What are the implications for whole building systems design and long-term performance?

This symposium tackles these questions, providing a common frame of reference, greater clarity and shared understanding, in the pursuit of growing high-performance building and Passive House markets.

«We are excited to host this important symposium event,» said NAPHN Executive Director, Ken Levenson. «As we push toward more robust health, efficiency and climate outcomes in our built environment, more questions arise – from professional practitioners and industry players. This event is meant to answer many of those questions and provide a baseline to help move the American building industry forward toward our zero-carbon emissions future .»

As carbon emissions goals tighten, efficiency demands grow, and Passive House performance levels are normalized, this focus on ventilation performance is an opportunity for the ventilation industry around the world and in the US. If component testing outputs can provide Passive House modeling data inputs, and products can meet Passive House targets, there is an emerging high-performance global market that can be served to the benefit of everyone.

About Passive House:
Passive House is an international building standard and methodology, applicable to buildings of all kinds from office buildings to hospitals, new-build and renovations, that results in a dramatic
drop in operational energy use, and more comfortable and healthy occupants – meant to aggressively mitigate our climate crisis while providing resilient adaptation.

The Passive House Standard was developed by the Passive House Institute (PHI), an independent scientific research organization, located in Darmstadt, Germany, and includes specific requirements for energy use and comfort of occupants. The Passive House Standard is being successfully applied to thousands of buildings and millions of square feet around the world, from Boston to Beijing.

The Passive House methodology starts with reducing cooling, dehumidification and heating loads by focusing, not on gadgets and active technology, but instead on fully integrated durable passive building components, such as proper continuous thermal-bridge-free insulation, continuous airtightness, high-performance windows and doors, and ventilation that includes a high-efficiency heat/energy recovery core, carefully calculated, and all integrated with the entire architectural process of design and construction. http://www.passivehouse.com http://www.passipedia.org

NEW YORK, Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Khaled Salem, running for the U.S. Senate against Chuck Schumer in 2022, urged Israel to take definitive action against Hezbollah and Hamas. In his view, these two terrorist organizations not only threat Israel, but also the peace of the entire region. Salem, as an Arab who immigrated to the US decades ago, has a distinct and extremely well-informed perspective on Middle Eastern politics and US policy. He also serves as CEO for American Human Rights, a New York-based organization. 

«Israel should end these two entities,» Khaled shared. «It would do them a world of good, while making the entire area more stable.» Khaled is disappointed and surprised that these organizations are located in countries that receive financial aid from the international community. He added, «This matter must end immediately, so the world can also cut Iran’s wings in the Middle East

Khaled also sent a message to Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, the Egyptian President—and all Arab countries—to release all American detainees in Egypt and other countries as soon as possible. He encourages the Biden administration to make it a firm policy that there should be no American detainees in the Middle East.

The candidate then reiterated his main policy positions. These include calls for New York City’s mayor and police to intensify policing in the streets to mitigate the impact of violence and reckless driving. He would like the Mayor to consider suspending parking tickets so that restaurants can create outdoor dining spaces on street parking spots.

Salem again encouraged the new administration to issue an order to American embassies to stop discriminating against dual American citizens. Other key policy positions include:

  • Tourist visas to the US must require travel medical insurance for entry.  
  • Laws and procedures to reduce domestic violence nationwide.
  • A reduction in U.S. military activity and presence in the Middle East.
  • A policy that requires these regions pay for American military services.
  • The establishment of a home loan program for middle class single parents.
  • Free university education for American students.

Salem is running in the next general election, scheduled for November 8, 2022. Thirty-four of the Senate’s 100 seats are being contested in these elections.

Help Khaled build grassroots momentum by joining his fight to protect our citizens abroad.

«Our partnership with DWP is an exciting next step for our company,» said Leedy. «We are looking forward to the growth and efficiency improvements that DWP brings to the company and excited to see ZombieBox grow to become the global household brand that it was meant to be.»

Tim Hargis, who was recently added to the Zombie Box Advisory Board, is a direct-to-consumer e-commerce expert. As a member of the core team of Tuft & Needle, he helped the company grow from $10 million to $200 million. Now, he’s bringing his skills to bear with Zombie Box.

«I’m excited to work with the entire Zombie Box team on the next phase of growth for the company as they continue to innovate and manufacture industry-leading products in the noise control enclosure space,» said Tim. 

Over the last year, ZombieBox has experienced triple-digit growth.

High Purity Alumina Market projected to exceed $4.5 billion by 2027, says Global Market Insights Inc.

SELBYVILLE, Del., Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Based on Global Market Insights Inc., report, the High Purity Alumina Market size was estimated at <span…

SELBYVILLE, Del., Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Based on Global Market Insights Inc., report, the High Purity Alumina Market size was estimated at $1798.1 million in 2020 and is slated to surpass $4.5 billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 15.1% from 2021 to 2027. The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the top winning strategies, wavering industry trends, drivers & opportunities, top investment avenues, competitive scenarios, market estimations & size.

Alumina is widely used in a variety of applications as it has superior chemical & physical properties such as high heat resistance, excellent electrical isolation, high corrosion resistance, and abrasion resistance. The industry is witnessing a steady growth owing to the proliferating semiconductor sector. HPA is a fairly new industrial-use material employed in the fabrication of semiconductor devices.

The demand for semiconductors is affected by several different underlying end-user applications including data processing, consumer electronics, and communication that account for a prominent share. Its applicability in personal computers, gaming consoles, tablets, television, servers, and iPods has escalated the demand for high-definition display screens, which will subsequently augment the high purity alumina market share.

Request for Sample Report: https://www.gminsights.com/request-sample/detail/1254

The demand for HPA is expanding in fields, such as display materials, energy, semiconductors, computers, and automobiles. In the field of liquid crystal display manufacturing equipment and semiconductors manufacturing equipment, a significant number of alumina components with a high level of plasma corrosion-resistant is utilized. Additionally, these are used for incorporating plasma spray coatings on aluminum, chromium, zinc, nickel, zirconium, or other similar alloys.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has significantly disrupted high purity alumina market size owing to the demand crunch in several parts of the world. The virus is highly contagious due to which most of the nations have announced the repetitive imposition of stringent lockdowns and movement restrictions on domestic and international trade & travel. These restrictive factors have a significant impact on the product demand. However, the industry is expected to rebound in 2021 with the establishment of strict guidelines and demand gradually returning to normalcy.

High purity alumina can be produced in different ways, the most common being the hydrolysis of aluminum alkoxide. The hydrolysis segment will witness around 15% CAGR as the process is used by the majority of manufacturers in the sector and involves costly & highly processed raw materials including aluminum metal. Altech has patented the production technology to obtain up to 4N grade HPA directly from aluminous ores such as kaolin or aluminous clay. The company has also invented a flexible finished product line capable of manufacturing HPA products for the synthetic sapphire industry and the lithium-ion battery sector. Another major manufacturer, Orbite, has developed and patented a process for obtaining superior-grade HPA using fly ash as the principal feedstock

The 6N is a very niche product segment and holds a significant share in the high purity alumina market. The purity level of 6N is 99.9999% and is used in thin-film & sputtering applications. In addition, it is utilized in abrasive, alumina ceramics, and separation membranes. Such high purity grade alumina finds very specific applications and costs exorbitantly higher than the other two product categories. Development in cost-effective production techniques may reduce segment pricing in the future.

The phosphor segment is poised to witness around 15% CAGR in high purity alumina market size. A rapid surge of phosphor-based equipment and appliances including plasma TVs in which pure alumina is used to control & regulate the characteristics of phosphorous products is anticipated to rise and aid in increasing the product market during the forecast timeframe.

Latin America high purity alumina market size will cross over USD 350 million by 2027 with the expansion in regional LED manufacturing. It is due to cost-effective labor, easy availability of raw materials, and abundance of land. The product is widely used in the manufacturing processes of electronic goods.
